It is The MFC that has to improve itself

Unfortunately for everyone involved at the MFC (even the fairweather members), this have proven to be all too hard on too many occasions.

    Complete nonsense PJ was on the front page re Jolimont Board/exec will deliver just has it has done with list mgt yes and Coaching Roos succession plan Goodwin top 4 one year drop off and we all dive for the bottom led by you well played btw have you asked the board or gone to an AGM and asked the question or do you just make this stuff up?

    Jolimont plan was niave, ill thought and should of been dismissed as soon as it was proposed. It showed how out of touch the Club is with its own historical neighborhood.

    I reckon Jolimont could still happen, just need to not be weak and dominate the pesky neighbourhood with teargas and riot shields. Remind the neighbourhood that it's tenants can relocate elsewhere if they want their dog to be able to take a [censored] in the park.

    Send the dogs off-leash to Yarra Park, Jolimont.

    The Flame Demon returns!   Is this the first time the Demon has officially made it onto any merchandise (other than the kiddy mascots)  since 2007??

    I 'was' enjoying the current match OD.  Thanks!

    here's an idea, for every loss the players 'donate' 10% of their match fees, if they lose 2 in a row it becomes 20%, 3 & 30% etc.

    i suspect that would fix our lapses in performance pronto.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
